Every organization holds various meetings from time to time. For these meetings to be productive, it has to be facilitated by skilled personnel. If not, the whole meeting will be a waste of time. As a result, more attention needs to be paid to the process elements of meetings. We must focus on asking rather than telling. We must learn to listen to build consensus. Facilitation is the new leadership ideal, the core competency everybody needs. Managers and supervisors need to facilitate rather than instruct or manage their meetings and training sessions.
